Long Distance Friends
You’re listening to Long-Distance Friends where - no matter where you are - you feel like you’re right here with us, wearing your giant t-shirt, snuggled up on the couch having late night chats with friends. And just like in your favorite group text, you’ll hear everything from tips and tricks and product recommendations to deep conversations about life, mental health, faith, and more. I’m your host and new long-distance friend, Anna Casey. I’m a mom of 2. I’m a military spouse. And I’m so happy you’re here!! Now onto the show!
